Chapter 7- Dreadful Memories
OOO
Clare didn't say one word once they entered the hospital. The tension was still building up inside her. The moment she just spent with Fitz crept in her mind. Memories flooded around them as their eyes locked and how much hatred Clare was beginning to feel. Fitz ruined her life. He took her away from everything that she always wanted.
Eli and Clare sat in the waiting room, with Eli's arms around Clare's tightly. Eli fell asleep after a while, but Clare couldn't. She was afraid that if she did, she would wake up and be in that basement again, re-living all the abuse Fitz pulled her into. She needed to stop thinking about him; it will only make everything worse. The more she thought about him, the more she wanted to hurt him... to kill him.
She closed her eyes tightly, trying to think of more happy things in her life. But disappointedly, she couldn't.
"Clare, please! Can we just take it to the next level?" Fitz asked innocently, placing an arm around Clare.
"Fitz! No! We've gone far enough. You know that if we do you and your dumbass self will lose control. You know about my purity ring!" Clare yelled standing up from the bed.
Fitz stood up, walking towards her making her back press up against the wall. "If you love me... you will let me do what you want." He whispered under his breath. Clare gagged at the smell, he's been drinking again. Before Clare could respond, he crushed his lips onto her, making her whimper when he darted his tongue in her mouth. He pressed harder against her lower body, making her squirm.
She tilted her head, making him finally pull back. "Fitz, stop it! I don't want this!" She yelled, but Fitz only growled.
"Clare, Clare, Clare... always is wanting to do it your way. Well tonight, I'm doing things my way." He said through his teeth. Before she could answer, he silenced her with another forceful kiss. He picked her up and threw her down to the bed, making her scream when her bruised arm from the other day hit the head board. He turned her over so she was facing him. Her only defense was to smack him right across the face, knowing that was the wrong thing to do. He turned his head back towards her and smacked her harder. The tears started to burn their way to her eyelids and her vision suddenly got blurry, not able to see the things around her. It was pitch black in her room and all she could see was the dark outlining of Fitz. As much as she tried to get out of his grip, Fitz was stronger than her; she will always be a weakling just like he said she was. His hands were gripping her tightly around her wrist and her waist, partially already bruising them. Clare tried to push him off, but he only growled and slapped her hard, making her vision become more blurry. She closed her eyes, hoping that this will end soon. She was caught off guard by his cold hands touching her inner thighs. She squealed, wanting to get out of this as quick as possible. He took his hands away and that's when she heard the sound of Fitz unbuckling his jeans and kicking them off. He placed his hands on the sides of her shorts and pulled them down. Clare felt him enter her as the pain coursed through her body. Fitz pushed in and out with slight sounds of moaning and the cries that Clare was making. She knew that she didn't want this. She never wanted this. She laid there, limp and broken and Fitz finished with her. After he was done, he got dressed and left. Leaving Clare on her bed all alone, drowning in her own tears. Clare finally picked up her body and dragged herself to the bathroom. She was sore all over, her arms, waist, and lower body. She sat on the floor and hesitantly looked at her self. She was bleeding heavily down there. She buried her head in her hands and cried softly, knowing that Fitz is never going to stop, and he never will.
Clare woke up screaming. She was sitting on the ground kicking her arms and yelling at anyone who came near her. Doctors were rushing over to calm her down, but she refused. Eli got on the floor next to her and hugged her, but Clare kept screaming.
"GET AWAY FROM ME! FITZ STOP IT NO!" She screamed with tears rolling down her cheeks.
Eli finally got a good hold of her and hugged her tightly. "Clare it's me, Eli... Calm down, it's just me." Clare was still moving harshly, but slowly came to a stop after Eli's hold to her. She slowly opened her eyes; they were a light shade of pink and still had tears running down her cheeks. Her breathing was heavy as she hugged Eli tightly.
"Eli... he was with me. He raped me. Eli... keep him away from me!" She whispered loudly clutching his shirt in his hands, taking in his sweet sent.
"He's gone, Clare... he's not going to come back." Eli rocked Clare back and forth on the floor, kissing the top of her head every once in a while. Doctors were still staring as the frightened couple were still on the floor, wondering what the hell just happened?
"Sir, is she okay?" A lady came over and asked with a concerned look.
"Yes ma'am, everything is alright." Eli smiled faintly when he finally noticed that Clare was asleep in his arms. Eli didn't move though, he didn't want to cause any more problems. He just sat there, and faintly went off to sleep with the love of his life in his arms.

Meanwhile, Katie was in the check-up room to get her wrist examined. The doctor came in 15 minutes later with her results.
"Yes, your wrist is broken; you are going to need surgery to get that repaired. And, um… there is some policemen outside that want to talk to you." The nurse smiled slyly and placed the clipboard on the counter, wrapping tight gauze around Katie's wrist. Whenever she pulled it tighter, Katie cried out in a little pain as she glued it securely on the top of her.
"Thank you… and you can let them in." Katie smiled and held her wrist tightly to her chest. She heard them whispering behind the door, and one came inside the room. She had short brown hair pulled back, she smiled at Katie and looked down at her little notepad.
"Ms. Goldsworthy, can you explain to me what Mr. Fitzgerald did to you?"
"Yes ma'am, um… I was getting ready to go out and he came to the door asking for Clare. I refused to tell him, so he took me, wrote a note, placed it on the counter and threw me in the back of his car. He drugged me which made me pass out for a long time, and the next thing I know, I was in some deserted place. He dragged me out of his car and that's how I broke my wrist." Katie hesitated at first. "He took me down to this cell, and his personality changed, he started touching me… and kissing me. I slapped him, but he punched and kicked me when I did. He forced me into taking drugs and doing things with him, but when I said no, he got angry and beat me up. He purposely punched my broken wrist, and smacked or punched me in my stomach."
"Can you tell me how you got away Miss?" The policemen took a seat next to Katie and scribbled things down on her notepad.
"Well, my friend Clare, he wanted her… and that's was the only way I could go back to my family. She had the guts to meet him out in this cornfield. She had her husband and my good friend James, hide and come out when Clare have a signal. I was in the back, not knowing what to do or what was happening. I thought he was going to kill me. He came around to the back after a while and grabbed me and pulled me to the front. When I first saw Clare, I got all freaked out. Then out of now where 3 policemen came out and handcuffed him, then I ended up here." Katie nodded her head and looked down.
"Is that all Miss?"
"Yes."
"Alright, thank you. We will get back to you as soon as possible; you may go see your friends now." The lady opened the door for Katie and walked to the other group of officers.
Katie went and got some coffee from the closest cafeteria and walked slowly down the hallway to the kids section. She didn't see Eli or Clare, but found them cuddled together on the floor. She tilted her head in confusion and kneeled down, staring at the couple with creases of visible tears streamed down their cheeks and the redness of Clare's recent outburst, that Katie has not known about it yet.
She shook Eli softly, making him stir and mumbling something under his breath. She shook him again, and only harder. His eyes fluttered open and smiled warmly at the sight of Katie.
"Katie…" Eli whispered. "You're alright. Thank god!" He wrapped his free arm around Katie, being as careful as he could to not wake Clare.
"Yeah… I'm fine, just some bruising and a broken wrist." Katie smiled sadly and looked over at Clare. "How is she doing?" Katie asked placing a hand on her knee.
"She had a small panic attack, it was when Fitz had her and raped her. It was intense but it was just that she hasn't been sleeping well and she's hallucinating. She's doing fine though."
Katie nodded her head and stood up, accidentally kicking Clare's foot making her open her eyes shoot open.
"Katie!" She smiled and hugged her tightly smiling from ear to ear.
"What are you guys still doing here?" Katie asked with a small grin.
"Dakota, she got surgery for her heart disorder. She should be awake now."
"Do you want too go see?"
"Yesh, sure." Clare smiled faintly and grabbed Eli's hand, holding it tightly. She was afraid that if she let go then Fitz would come and get her.
OOO
They sat on the edge of Dakota's hospital bed, talking to her softly and asking her questions every once in a while. Kaite sat at the end of the bed while Eli and Clare sat closely to her, holding hands with hers also. The nurse came in asking if Dakota was okay, and she only nodded.
"Mommy, when do I get to come home?" She asked in a soft, tiredly voice.
"I don't know sweetie, we are going to have to wait and see. You might still need some recovery, but pretty soon. I promise."
"Okay Mommy. Where's Carson?" She asked looked over at her dad.
"He's with Drew and CeCe, you know how he hates hospitals." Clare smiled sadly, wishing that he was here so she could hold them both. She looked at Eli as her eyes were tilled up with unsheaded tears. He leaned over and kissed her temple, making her smile lightly. She placed her hand over the growing lump in her stomach, and smiled. She looked up and Dakota, and she was already asleep.
"Sorry to bother you, but visting hours are over, you can come back around 8 tomorrow morning." The nurse walked in and hooked a pink piece of paper on the wall then walked out.
Clare kissed Dakota's forehead and Eli did the same. They walked out of the hospital standing closely together, hands interlaced tightly.
OOO
Drew was sitting on the couch, drifting off to sleep when hefelt a huge weight pile on his legs making him wake up instantly.
"Uncle Drew! Come and play with me!" Carson smiled and jumped around the room.
"Car, it's late… you should be in bed." He rubbed his eyebrows and glaced over at the clock, ticking every second.
"Buuuuut I couldn't get to sleep. Come in there until I fall asleep. Pleeeaasseeee." Carson begged in one of those annoying kiddy voices. Drew sighed and nodded his head, walking toward Carson's bedroom. He heard the front door open, glanced over and saw Eli.
"Car, I'll be in soon… wait for me." Carson walked in his room, not noticing that his family walked in.
Drew walked over to Eli and had a small conversation with him. He looked over Eli's shoulder. His face got filled with worry, he saw Katie with all the cuts and bruises with the guaze wrapped around her wrist. He walked past Eli and Clare, walking over to Katie. She looked up and a huge smile appeared on her purple and black cheeks.
He took her in for a hug, trying his best not to hurt her in any way. She wrapped her arms around him also, pulling him in for a tighter hug. She pulled back, "I missed you." She whispered placing her hands around his neck.
"I missed you Kate." Drew smiled and leaned down, capturing her lips. His lips moved slowly with hers, it wasn't the perfect one, but it was full of meaning. He hungered for her lips, even though he just saw her a few hours ago, he needed to be with her. Kaite smiled during the kiss and pulled back.
"I love you, Drew." A small blush crept up on her place cheeks, clearly visible with the light colored marks. Drew took in a small breath and looked down at his feet, not knowing what to say. Did he feel this way?
"Oh…" Katie removed her hands and looked down. "I'm sorry, It's too soo—" Drew cut her off placing a kiss on her forehead, her cheeks and then a chaste one on her lips.
"I love you too Kate." He smiled and their lips once connected again.
OOO
"They remind me of us." Clare spoke, getting under the covers turning towards Eli.
"How?" He asked wrapping his arms around her waist and pulled her closer.
"Just, they just met… and it already seems like they're in love. I could see it when they first laid eyes on each other." Clare smiled at the memory. "Like when I first saw you… I guess love at first sight does work." Clare chuckled and looked up at Eli. He smiled down at her and captured her lips with his.
He rolled on top of her, not removing his lips from hers. He placed one of his hands on her waist and another above her head so he wouldn't fall on her and hurt the baby.
"I love you Clare… you have no idea." Eli whispered, disconnecting their lips. He placed a small butterfly kiss on her forehead, then her nose, and lastly her lips once again.
"I think I do, Elijah." She pecked his lips and pushed him over back to his side of the bed. She turned over and pressed her back against his chest. "I love you too Eli." She smiled and he wrapped his arms around her waist, and that's how they fell asleep, in each others arms. Just how they liked it.
OOO
Sorry for the graphicness. I felt the need too since they just did something that was risky. I hope you all liked and thank youu! Probably a few more chapters. I don't know.
